11. The Wilhelmy plate consists of a thin plate usually on the order of a few square centimeters in area. 12. The thin plate is welded in a regular pattern of dots or with a serpentine pattern of weld lines. 13. The sockets are attached with cyanoacrylate ( or silicone adhesive ) to thin plates of glass-fiber-reinforced epoxy ( fiberglass ). 14. The strip model is limited mostly to SPSWs with thin plates ( low critical buckling capacity ) and certain ratios. 15. The soft tissues were then approximated using 3D Thin Plate Splining ( TPS ) with data from a modern child. 16. A thin plate of some material is placed atop a thick layer of a different material, both layers typically of metal. 17. The strip model concept, although appropriate for practical analysis of thin plates , is not directly applicable to other types of plates. 18. A thin plate of metal can be pushed in and out of a narrow slot in the side of the waveguide. 19. During the last few foldings, the steel may be forged into several thin plates , stacked, and forge welded into a brick. 20. He was very sceptical of the monocoque design, predicting that without reinforcement the thin plates would crack at their connection welds.
